RPAC BLog
From the jobsite to the boardroom, discover how RPAC members are driving equity in construction
The RPAC blog is more than just updates — it’s a platform for stories, insights, and bold ideas shaping the future of our region’s construction trades. Here, we shine a light on the people and programs working to diversify the workforce, break down barriers, and create real pathways to living-wage careers.
From highlighting the voices of women and BIPOC trailblazers to sharing the latest on workforce equity initiatives, our blog offers practical resources, community success stories, and a behind-the-scenes look at how collaboration fuels change. Every post reflects our commitment to building a construction industry where opportunity, dignity, and inclusion aren’t the exception — they’re the standard.
Building Futures: Pre-Apprenticeship’s role in Creating Equitable Pathways
The Bridges Center’s Research Team is proud to release “Building Futures: Pre-Apprenticeship in Construction and Beyond.” In this report, we explore the role of pre-apprenticeship in creating more equitable pathways for underrepresented workers in the construction industry - specifically workers who identify as Black, Indigenous, people of color, women, and gender non-conforming.
